<p>This variable is equal to the URI request or, if if the URI concludes with a forward slash, then the URI request plus the name of the index file given by fastcgi_index. It is possible to use this variable in place of both SCRIPT_FILENAME and PATH_TRANSLATED, utilized, in particular, for determining the name of the script in PHP. 
</p><p>For example, for the request "/info/":
</p>
<pre class="code">  <span class="kw11">fastcgi_index</span>  <span class="kw3">index</span>.php;
  <span class="kw11">fastcgi_param</span>  SCRIPT_FILENAME  /home/www/scripts/php<span class="re0">$fastcgi_script_name</span>;</pre>
<p>SCRIPT_FILENAME would equal "/home/www/scripts/php/info/index.php".
